I actually like this...
Yet another duck shot from me. I was concentrating on getting "wing action" and so on from the ducks yesterday, and captured this one. I thought it was funny, like the duck was pretending to be a spook, or something, going "Woooo Hoooo". 
I also actually like it for the detail in the wings...feathers look great when they're spread like that, i think. What do you guys think?

I spend too much of my life on TPF!
Wanting wing action, why not slow the shutter speed down a little bit to better show the motion?

I like this sharing very much, because your shared pictures are very nice.. The scene of water is looking very nice. the color of waves and bird's wings are awesome..

Really a nice picture. I like the wings as well. I see some sort of caption under it starting with "In the unlikely event of a water landing..."

I like the frozen droplets of water, he also looks like he's ready for a fight :p nice shot

Nice photo! I think if the tip of the wing was in focus as well it would benefit the photo, but then again it wouldnt feel like the duck is moving.

Thanks. Yes, the idea on this day was to capture movement, so wings blurred was part of what I was going for, but that said, water was also part of what I was going for, so frozen in space water drops too. Think this managed to get both to some extent.
